St. Patrick’s Day Parades this Weekend!

Local St. Patrick’s Day Parades- this weekend!

 

We hope you’ve got your green ready because it’s St. Patrick’s Day parade time here at the Jersey Shore.

By our count, the northern, central and shore regions of the state will host at least 20 St Patrick Day parades across 22 days leading up to and following St. Patrick’s Day on Friday, March 17. The fun starts this weekend in Monmouth and Ocean County!

At The Connolly Agency we have clients all over Monmouth and Ocean County, and we don’t want anyone to miss out on the opportunity to spend the day taking in bagpipes, corned beef and community at one of these local St. Patrick’s Day Parades! In case you missed the Belmar / Lake Como Parade last weekend, here is a list of some local parades happening this weekend, Sunday, March 12, 2023! Don’t forget to put on your green and get there early!

If you were planning on attending the Seaside Heights parade, see the major announcement below! Due to poor weather forecasts for Saturday, March 11- Seaside Heights has decided to postpone their parade until Saturday, April 1, 2023, so don’t forget to mark your calendars! Now we have an extra weekend of parades to look forward to!

We hope everyone has a safe and wonderful weekend with friends and family at the parades!
